The most awaited summit on climate change ended just few weeks ago with the results which are equally awaited!Some questions that you can try to answer....#How many vehicles were engaged for the transport of people and materials all through the summit? #How many disposables were used to pack/unpack the food items/water/personal care materials for all those 'fortunate' souls who attended? #How much amount of electricity was used through out the summit for lights/fans/ACs/Heaters/microphones etc..etc? #How much waste was generated..How far was it seggregated...How did it get recycled??? These are just a few...but the final and most important question is...CARBON FOOTPRINT???? That too produced on the occasion of summit on CLIMATE CHANGE???? And what about the end result.....VIEWS AND COUNTER VIEWS. Anything else???

Despite all the frustrations and disappointment about Copenhagen: the conference has proved a milestone, with much success. A deal looks in place to prevent deforestation. There has been a recognition of the problem of acidification in the oceans. Pledges from China and the US to reduce emissions are big news, and the presence of President Obama at the heart of these negotiations can only be welcomed. We should also be upbeat about emerging consenus that the developed world should help to compensate for the limiting of emissions of the developing world, provided it comes with effective checks so that the right money goes to the right places.
If Copenhagen has produced an agreement on climate change, it is now the task of those policymakers to go back home and win the argument.

Up to 140 extra private jets during the peak period alone - far over the airports capacity ---- the planes had to fly off to regional airports – or to Sweden – to park, returning to Copenhagen to pick up their VIP passengers.
15,000 delegates and officials, 5,000 journalists and 98 world leaders, the Danish capital was blessed by the presence of Leonardo DiCaprio, Daryl Hannah, Helena Christensen, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Prince Charles. The top hotels – all fully booked at £650 a night – are readying their Climate Convention menus of (no doubt sustainable) scallops, foie gras and sculpted caviar wedges. Copenhagens climate change summit produced as much carbon dioxide as a town the size of Middlesbrough. WAS EVERYTHING JUST HOT AIR?
